Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 441
After observing carefully for a while, Yang Yi handed the telescope to Shen Chengwen next to him.After Shen Chengwen saw it clearly, Yang Yi quietly retreated.

The two were lying in ambush in a depression outside the plain, and not far ahead was the crater around the plain.On the highest mountain peak, with dazzling lights, a group of Lei Ling clan officers and soldiers are working in full swing, and the defense formula based on the mountain peak has begun to take shape.

Soon, Shen Chengwen also retreated to the bottom of the depression.

Although the depression is not very deep, it is large enough to hold hundreds of people and enough to block the enemy's sight.

Inside the depression, there were dozens of officers and soldiers from the Special Investigation Brigade.They are the elites of the Special Investigation Brigade, all of them are elite fighters, and they all have two primary energy converters, but only one is an S-level primary energy converter, which is the one sent by Yang Yi, and its strength is a little worse than that of Shen Chengwen.It's just that they all have a wealth of actual combat experience, and they are determined, and they are definitely no worse than the enemy's officers if they really want to fight.

As before, Yang Yi and the others did not use the original energy converter, and all wore protective clothing.In order not to be discovered by the enemy, they also reduced the power of the protective clothing to the minimum, that is, only maintaining the temperature and providing oxygen, and all other functions were turned off, because electromagnetic radiation may also be detected by the enemy.

When Shen Chengwen returned, Yang Yi had already gathered the officers and soldiers.

The situation is clear at a glance, within ten kilometers nearby, there is only this fortification under construction, and the enemy's construction progress is astonishingly fast.Yang Yi and the others arrived four hours ago, and at that time they had only laid the foundation.Although it has long been heard that the engineering troops of the Leiling Clan Legion are very powerful, but most of the construction work was completed in just a few hours, Yang Yi and others were still extremely shocked.

Obviously, it's not just here.

Before they came, Yang Yi and the others knew that after the Lei Ling army entered the Weeping Plain, they first built a tall tower in the center of the plain, which was the command tower of the army, and then began to build fortifications on the crater outside the plain.According to the understanding of Yang Yi and others, this is the standard procedure for the Leiling clan army to build a fortress-level barracks.As expected, there is a fortification about every ten kilometers on the crater.Even with the engineering troops of only three legions, the defense line can be built in about ten days at the current construction speed.With the supporting fortifications and the heavy weapons sent by the spaceship, the three Lei Ling clan legions can hold the barracks.At that time, not to mention that Yang Yi only has [-] legions in his hands and has no heavy weapons for attacking fortifications. Even if he has, and has more troops, he may not be able to take down this fortress.To put it bluntly, as long as the Lei Ling clan's legion is allowed to establish a line of defense, even the Silicon Charm army commanded by the War Emperor can only look at the sea and sigh.

Delaying it is definitely not an option.

Of course, Yang Yi and the others came here not only to observe the enemy's situation, but also to look for opportunities.

"Obviously, the Leiling Clan Legion is planning to stay here for a long time, and judging from the layout of the outer defense line, the enemy intends to control the entire Weeping Plain." Yang Yi drew a circle on the ground. "The area of ​​the plain is large enough to station hundreds of legions. Even with a conservative estimate, it would be no problem to accommodate a hundred legions. From this we can conclude that the enemy is not just settling here temporarily, but must have made long-term plans."

"Also, judging from the construction speed of the outer defense line, the enemy's large army may arrive soon, no later than ten days later." Shen Chengwen added.

Yang Yi nodded slightly, and said: "When the enemy's large army arrives, even without a hundred legions, we can't do anything. In other words, if we want to fight, it will only be a matter of these few days, and we can't delay it any longer. It’s just that we have to figure out how to fight.”

"What else is there to say?" Shen Chengwen looked at Yang Yi incomprehensibly.

Yang Yi smiled lightly and didn't say much.

"Since we have come here, the enemy's large troops have not arrived, and the enemy does not know that we are here, and the defense is very lax. Among other things, we have been here for four hours, but we have not found the enemy's patrolling troops. The guard troops near the fortifications have all withdrawn." Shen Chengwen paused for a moment, and then said, "Destroy that fortification, and the enemy's guard troops will rush over. Even if they can't beat them, they can only retreat, which can also force the enemy to strengthen their defenses." , Naturally, we have to slow down the speed of building fortifications. As expected, the enemy's large forces will not arrive until the camp is fully built. Of course, it will definitely be no problem to kill a few engineers with our strength."

"and then?"

"Then what?" Shen Chengwen looked at Yang Yi incomprehensibly.

"Do you think that after being attacked, the commander of the Leiling Clan Legion will think that the Silicon Demon Alliance did it?

"This……"

"That's right, the Silicon Charm's army is nearby, and the commander of the Thunderling Clan Legion may not know the truth, but as long as the battle report is sent back, the Wanluo War Emperor will know that it was not Kutum's silicon that attacked the Thunderling Clan Legion here. The Charm Legion, but us, is the legion of the Human Federation." Yang Yi let out a long breath and said, "If the Emperor Wanluo is cruel and concludes that it is us, he will immediately withdraw the three legions and then destroy the slag star. At that time, even if we escaped by chance, we would definitely not be able to prevent the fleet of the Lei Ling clan from leaving. More importantly, if the Wanluo War Emperor was a little smarter, he would block the Slag Star and use us to threaten the Star Soul Queen. Don't forget, Star The Soul Queen established an alliance with the Human Federation through me. At that time, the Star Soul Queen will definitely compromise with the Wanluo War Emperor. Even if the Wanluo War Emperor is not smart enough, or because of other reasons, such as not knowing the secrets hidden in the slag planet We are the ones who went up, and we will let the big troops arrive on time. We can't even defeat three Leiling clan legions, so why should we fight hundreds of legions?"

"Does it mean that we don't do anything?"

"Of course not. If you don't do anything now, you're waiting to die."

"so what should I do now?"

Yang Yi let out a long breath and said, "Actually, your idea is not wrong. The most urgent task is to find ways to slow down the speed of the enemy's camp. To put it bluntly, as long as this camp is completed, even if the large troops of the Leiling clan do not arrive, the three legions will It will cost us dearly. It's just that we can't attack directly. When the battle starts, we will be found by the enemy no matter what the outcome is."

Shen Chengwen nodded slightly, expressing his understanding of Yang Yi's meaning.

"We came in time, and the enemy's defenses were lax." Yang Yi glanced at the officers and soldiers around him. "It's not too late, let's do it now."

"how to spell?"

"What is this place?"

Shen Chengwen was slightly taken aback, not quite understanding what Yang Yi meant.

"This is Slag Star, and we have figured out the internal structure of this planet. If there is an earthquake, and it happens to be near the Weeping Plain, even if it is a coincidence, the enemy may not be suspicious. You know, this planet has long been It was hollowed out, and the geological structure is very unstable." Yang Yi smiled lightly and said, "As long as the earthquake is strong enough, it is not just a fortification that will be damaged."

Now, Shen Chengwen understood, and the other officers and soldiers also understood.

Yang Yi stopped talking and stood up first.

However, before Shen Cheng could smell it, Yang Yi pressed his hand.

"what happened?"

"The others stay here, let's go up and take a look."

Shen Chengwen was taken aback for a moment, but then he realized that Yang Yi was extremely sensitive to fluctuations in original energy, so he must have discovered something, so he followed.

Soon, the two returned to the place where they were lurking before.

On the mountain peaks in the distance, the lights are still brightly lit, and there are still many engineering officers and soldiers of the Leiling clan busy, but it is not the same as before.

After observing carefully for a while, Yang Yi let out a sigh of relief.

"What did you find?"

"An officer came, the energy fluctuations were extremely obvious, and other engineering officers and soldiers were organized. It should be an officer of the engineering army."

"How high is the officer?"

"That guy has a high-level primary energy converter, at least AAA level, maybe S level." Yang Yi looked at Shen Chengwen, "With this level of primary energy converter, he should be at least a mid-level officer, right?"

Shen Chengwen nodded, and said: "If he is a mid-level officer, then this guy must be a veteran. He may have been in the Leiling Clan Legion for hundreds of years, and he may even have participated in the last Greenwich War. Otherwise, The most you have is a grade A primary energy converter."

"Are you sure?"

"At least in the last war, the Lei Ling clan didn't have enough S-level power converters. They were only distributed to generals, and it was difficult for mid-level officers to obtain."

"Maybe, that guy is the commander of the engineering unit."

"There is such a possibility." Shen Chengwen paused for a while, and then said, "Only three legions came, and we found no heavy engineering equipment, so these engineering soldiers are likely to be the engineering troops of the legion. In this case, their command The officer must be a mid-ranking officer."

"In other words, he is responsible for the construction of the entire camp?"

"If he's the commander, he's definitely in charge."

"So, does he know why the camp was built?"

"This..." Shen Chengwen hesitated for a while before he said, "It should not be clear, he is only responsible for engineering construction, so he only needs to know what kind of camp to build, and what the purpose of building the camp is obviously has nothing to do with him. The commanding officer will not tell him."

"At least he knows the specifics of this camp."

Shen Chengwen nodded and said: "Not only does he know, but only he knows. Simply put, he knows the size of the camp after it is completed and the deployment of various facilities better than anyone in the legion. If you want to If you know the layout of this camp, you have to capture him alive."

"It seems that we have to plan carefully."

"Catch him alive?" Shen Chengwen was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Yang Yi in disbelief.

"He only has one S-class original energy converter at most, and he is an engineer. His combat power is not too strong. You don't have confidence in yourself, do you?"

Shen Chengwen rolled his eyes, speechless at Yang Yi's words.

It's not that he doesn't have confidence in himself, but it's not easy to capture a Leiling clan officer with an S-level power converter alive, even if it's just an officer of the engineering unit.
